BIGHORN’s Junior Golf Program states that it offers instruction and memorable experiences for every one and every level and gives the children of Golf Members the successful keys to learning and enjoying the game of golf in a fun and engaging environment. The program combines expert coaching with unforgettable moments and plenty of rewards, and includes an Annual Parent-Junior Golf Tournament. BIGHORN Members are also presented with opportunities for friendly competition and supportive charity tournaments.
The Junior Golf Program is led by Junior Golf Director and BIGHORN Teaching Professional Bill Madonna, along with General Manager Tony Ogrodnick and Director of Memberships Dylan Hunton. Bill Madonna is certified in TPI, Aimpoint, and BioSwing Dynamics, and he is known for his simple approach to instruction and his playful sense of humor. While participants of BIGHORN’s Junior Golf Program are his main priority, he remains engaged with adult Members, who are told they will not receive BIGHORN Bucks for their efforts. Bill began teaching golf in 1994, and since his arrival at BIGHORN in 2002, he has continued his work with junior golfers.
Bill Madonna has been listed as a Top 50 Teacher in America by USKids Golf. BIGHORN’s Golf Shop has been consistently listed by Golf World Business Magazine as one of the Top 25 Private and Top 100 Pro Shops in the country for 16 years in a row.
